Education Program

The OTC Foundation (OTCF) is committed to designing and conducting an integrated and complementary set of educational activities with the aim of developing the professional skills of practicing surgeons at all levels, with a special focus on young surgeons.

The OTCF Education Committee (EDCO) plans advanced level, indication-related courses that last two days for approximately 40 surgeons: an annual triple wet-lab-course for a specific indication (Americas, Europe, Asia), a triple course on fragility fractures (Americas, Europe, Asia) and one for emerging markets. The courses take place worldwide at local educational centers.

Other activities include Leadership and Regional Forums and more than a dozen international Fellowships (lasting two or four weeks) held at one of our seven OTCF Host Centers.
